Hello all!
long time lurker in the SM forum.
I'm looking at joining the SM community in the next couple of years.
Right now I'm looking at slowly acquiring gear, the easiest thing to get are tanks.
I have some questions as to what tanks would be best served for SM duties.
About my diving:
I dive cold water in a dry suit with thick undergarment. Currently I dive with a SS BP/W and a AL80. I require 14lbs to be properly weighted. I do OW diving only and some limited wreck penetration. Not interested in Cave but will be in more technical diving in the future. I'm also 5'6'' so kind of short for a dude.
I have a lead on 2 Faber LP 85 that I can probably get for a good deal. Tanks come with a left and right valve that were used in doubles back. Are those tanks suitable for SM diving? Would you recommend them? Would they trim well in SM? I fear that they may be too tall for me (but again I have no idea!).
